Sometimes a friend can save your life by writing terse prose.

If a player is unable to hit the ball, a friend can 'save' them.

"My friend saves me all her eggshells from the whole winter."

Your friend saves her by jumping in front of them.

Let us not forget that my friend saved your life.

Then that friend would probably also save documents in the same secret format of Word.

My friends are saving to buy homes now, or to put their children through college 15 years into the new millennium.

A certain friend of mine estimates he saved about $600 in sales taxes last year from Amazon alone.

For everybody killed, multiply that by family, friends, even the doctors who tried but couldn't save them.
